Hello, is it possible to create a buffer radius from another radius? for example in a particular area, there is commercial building, and I picked the commercial building as my point then drew 500m radius from there and created a map. now from that same commercial building I picked my point, I want to create another 250m radius from there. how do I go about it.

Hello, I want to create a buffer around an area based on the value of a field. For Example. 5 small, 50 medium, 100 Large. So, if there is an area that is smaller than 5 obviously a small buffer, but anything over 5 to 49 to be considered medium, and anything from 50 to 100 considered large.

@@TerraSpatial I want to know if there is an easy way to create an automated buffer for a line. I want the buffer to gradually get bigger based on the value of an attribute.
